        ....thought of one better 'cause I'm sitting here looking at it....
        A pink and white electric guitar!!! I was playing my 'bit knackered but warm' sounding acoustic in Hanley, Stoke on Trent,UK,
        when this old guy came up to me and asks if I can make use of a guitar that'd been sitting on his wardrobe for years! He returned 10 minutes later, guitar in hand!
        Played it ever since.
        Got to be one of the nicest drops??
        I love this job.

          Someone gave you stitches? I hope you needed them.

            A group from the Nation of Islam just gave me a cell phone. They explained that they didn't have any cash, but really enjoyed the performance so they gave me the phone.

            Does any one need a cell phone? I don't. But if you do then email me at danfoley@mindspring.com. I'm giving it away to the performer who needs it most. Its a Motorola i1000 plus if that means anything to anyone.

                        I was busking in a restaurant this week and got a Love Letter in my hat. It was from a six or seven year old girl and said "Thank you Paddy. I like the balloons. I think you are a very funny clown. Love Jessica"

                        It is framed and in my living room so I can remember the real value of being an entertainer
